QuestionAnswer
Work apply force times distance, labeled in Joules
Power labeled in watts or horsepower, work divided by time, rate of doing work
Machine multiplies force, force and distance are inverse, can change direction of force
Work output can not be greater than work input, increased by reducing friction or increasing work input
Mechanical advantage output force divided by input force
IMA problem, pulley
Friction decreases efficiency
Efficiency never 100%, always less, some input force always lost to friction, work output divided by work input
Inclined plane increases distance, ramp
Wedge 2 inclined planes, axe, as thickness increases IMA decreases
Wheel and axle doorknob
Compound machine includes more than one simple machine, bicycle
Force only does work if it applied in the direction of the motion
Screw inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder
Levers 3 classes, gears are continuous levers
First class lever fulcrum in middle
Second class lever output force in middle
Third class lever input force in middle, IMA always less than 1
Math problems work, power, efficiency,

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
